The venerable old printer started misfeeding the paper last night causing jams and errors. I tried troubleshooting it for a while but it stubbornly refused to cooperate. So I disconnected it from the network and loaded it up to go to the HAZMAT recycle center on Friday. I have a bunch of other HAZMAT items boxed up so the timing is right.<\/p>\n<p>Even before showing signs of failure, it started getting hard to find toner cartridges for the old printer. Fortunately, one on-line source came through a couple of years ago when I ordered a couple of toner cartridges. I used one up and the last one we had started to exhibit signs of going out of toner. <\/p>\n<p>The last time I installed the printer on the new laptop, I had a difficult time locating an on-line source for a proper printer driver. I guess the signs were all there that the time has come for a new printer.<\/p>\n<p>We will be in the market for a new printer when the new house in Arizona is complete. In California, we&#8217;re going to scout out and buy a cheapie printer to use until we finally get the house on the market.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After nearly twenty years, my old Hewlett Packard 4L Laserjet printer finally bought the farm.
